"Seems fair?! What? I was almost a splat on the rug because of that broom!" She cried pointing at it dramatically and I chuckled. Papyrus nervously chuckled, glancing away. I pat his shoulder, and left to go sit on the couch. Able to see what was happening in the kitchen. I clicked through the channels till it stopped on the contest from a few days ago, I quit flipping and settled watching that.
Watching quietly, it showed clips of all the performances. I saw paps, and his had gone well, till it flipped to mine. It was me, my face was hidden by my hood but my body was frozen there, there was quiet murmuring drowning over the music I now despise . I sighed shaking my head slowly and glancing into the kitchen, Pap and Crystal were now just talking. I hopped up and made my way to see what they were talking about, they went silent before I got in.
"what's up?" I asked, Crystal looked at me nervously, and I gave her a confused look, looking over to my brother, he only seemed slightly annoyed yet his face was crossed with determination.
"The human won't dance with me!" He grumbled, I looked at her even more confused as she looked away.
"I-I don't like dancing..." She murmured, slumping in her chair, I glanced away and scoffed
"see pap, i'm not the only one!" I said, looking up to my brother, he only sighed and stood up,
"Well, I didn't think there was another like you Sans!" he turned to Crystal "Don't be too much like him!" He warned then gave a hearty "NYEH HEH HEH" as he left the kitchen and went out the front door, probably to go hang out with Undyne, or Mettaton. I turned to Crystal,
"so you don't like to dance?" she blushed and looked away,
"Well I- uh... yeah.." my grin grew a little,
"same here kid." She blinked in surprise
"R-really?"
"really really." she stood up, and thanked me for being honest about the not-dancing thing, before she went to the front door saying she was going to go look around for a while, but I had gotten the sense she had already seen it all before and just wanted to reminisce... But by the way she seemed to look as she walked away, through all the familiar-ness, there was something new, and it was going to bother her.
******Time Skip brought to you by... Hot Hot Legs <3******
I was being lightly shaken awake, not Papyrus for sure, I cracked open an eyelid to see Crystal looking down at me, I quick sat up and my eye flared bright blue before I realized, she was just waking me up. I sighed and she sat beside me quietly, a small smile still on her face.
"So, I began to think, what if... Well, we could maybe, d-dance together...?" I felt myself tense a little, and sweat began to form, as I became more and more nervous.
"dance?" I already hadn't wanted to, I had forced myself for Papyrus, and now she was there asking. "I dunno kid..." I looked away
"I know... But maybe since neither like dancing... We could... Both... U-um slowly.. Get the h-hang of it again....?" I smiled lightly, my eyes never tearing from the floor
"That's a terrible idea." I stated lowly, she looked up at the ceiling and smiled so lightly, it barely was even a smile.
"You're right, I-I'm sorry for suggestin-"
"Let's Dance." I cut in, her eyes widened and her head snapped to me. I chuckled lightly, and she stood up
"Wait? Are you being serious?!" She squeaked, I nodded and stood up myself. She took a confused step back, and I took a confident step forward, holding both my hands up.
"I actually want to move past it. All this fear of dancing." I said so quietly I was practically whispering to her. Her cheeks flared a light pink as she shakily raised her hands up to meet mine, and I intertwined our fingers "What style of dancer are you?" I asked and her face went slightly blank,
"Well, umm, v-very similar to yours..." I chuckled
"Your just making it easier." I said lowly, leaning closer to her face, in return her face flushed into a dark red. I pulled back and let go of her hands taking a step back, holding a hand out with one on my chest. She smiled catching on, and did the same motion. I went to my computer and started playing some quick and catchy music. We both seemed to move in sync as we dipped down to the ground spinning on our heels, before jumping to our feet and twirling back up. Soon we were both smiling, and beginning to zone out the rest of the world, not noticing the fact that there were two monsters standing in the doorway watching us.
Slowly the song came to an end and Crystal and I were once again in the position of out faces inches apart and our bodies pressed together with our fingers sucked together. She blinked first and snapped back to reality, letting go and grabbing her water bottle on my desk. I followed by flopping on my bed
"That's about the most exercise I've had in a while." I chuckled, she laughed with me and came over sitting beside me, when she had looked up her faced almost seemed to pale, confused I sat up looking to the door, my face also fell as I saw my brother and Toriel both standing there about to explode.
"BROTHER YOU DANCED!!! WILLINGLY!!!" Papyrus squealed, running in and crushing me into a hug. I flushed bright blue
"How long were you two standing out there...?" I questioned
"Long enough!!" Toriel clapped happily, I buried my face in my hands. Peeking out to see Crystal getting crushed by Papyrus
"HUMAN WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO DANCE WITH ME!?" He asked, sparkles in his eyes. She was hesitant, but slowly. Very slowly. Nodded her head, yes. Tori tapped my shoulder
"Sans, would you be willing to dance with me?" She asked quietly, I plastered up a fake smile.
"Sure, why not Tori!" She smiled kindly down to me.
"Thank you" pap and tori said in unison.
"Of course..."
